Coyote Racing Team

Well it was an up and down Cavalcade at Lorain Speedway for Coyote Racing. My truck( #26) wasn't that good Saturday. Had a clutch slipping. But still managed to qualify 4th and win the Fast heat race. My crew got new clutch in it Saturday night while we Partied Hard COYOTE Style after the races and had a blast!!! Sunday comes and truck feels really good in hot laps. Start Feature in 8th, move up to 3rd quickly and start chasing down the leaders and RF rim breaks the center out and done some other damage, we managed to get it back out just to make some laps then motor starts acting up. Limped home to an 11th place. A lot of work to get it ready for the final race of the year at Lake County but we will be there. Brian Taylor in the 32 truck came from the back to win his heat then in feature missed a shift and fell to back of pack, started working his way back towards the front. Around the halfway break he lost the power steering. After the break he put his BIG BOY PANTIES on and manned up on the wheel and worked the 2nd groove doing a great job coming back up to 3rd!!! Now hopefully we can find the steering issue before next race. The #99 truck driven by Rick Funnell in his 1st ever Truck start had a rough up and down weekend. Had a few issues Saturday with mechanical problems. Worked hard to get truck fixed for Sunday and the truck was really fast for the 1st time out with it. He done a good job staying on the lead lap to the 1/2 way break. Unfortunately he had some front end body damage from early contact and towards the end of the race the #4 got sideways in turn two and he couldn't see him until to late and BOOM!!! Got some pretty significant damage so have to see if can be fixed for Lake County.

Won another heat race, but had brake issues and problem with the motor so struggled to a 7th place finish.. Back to the garage!!! May be sitting out for a while, depends on how much damage is done to the engine..
